National Horizons Centre (Biosciences)

This £22m state-of-the art, purpose built facility focuses on addressing the needs of the bioscience and healthcare sectors. It is underpinned by a multidisciplinary team of researchers working in partnership with industry and the National Health Service.

The centre is focussed around four themes: health and disease; bioinformatics and data science; biotechnology and analytics; and the sustainable planet. Through fundamental and applied research, our research explores the characterisation, understanding and modelling of complex interactions within biological systems. This includes the study of cancer and other diseases, food technology, development of medical diagnostic devices, ecology and environment, forensic archaeology and biotechnology enhancement.
